This spacious 3-bedroom, 2-bath retreat sits on a peaceful 5 acres of land near Bar Harbor, Ellsworth, Bangor, and Brewer while maintaining a classic Maine small-town charm. Step into the bright and welcoming living room where vaulted ceilings and whitewashed wood walls create a space that feels both open and cozy. Just around the corner, the kitchen and dining room are ready for you to host all winter long enveloped by the warmth of the wood stove. Outside there's even more to love. Surrounded by nature, you'll enjoy spotting wildlife and having easy access to hiking trails, fishing spots, swimming, and hunting areas in addition to blooming raised garden beds and a stocked wood shed, ready for winter.

This home is full of thoughtful touches, including high-efficiency insulation to keep you comfortable year-round, modern bathrooms, including 1 with a tile shower, a reserve osmosis system for pure, clean water, and a hard-wired generator. Ready to move in and ready to make memories!
